Job 7:3-11 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

3. Month after frustrating month has gone by. I have suffered night after night.

4. When I lie down, I think, ‘How long before it’s time to get up?’ The night drags on. I toss and turn until the sun comes up.

5. My skin is covered with worms and scabs. It is cracked and covered with sores.

6. “My days pass by faster than a weaver’s shuttle, and my life will end without hope.

7. God, remember, my life is like a breath. I will not get a second chance to enjoy it.

8. Those who see me now will never see me again. You watch me for a while, but then I am gone.

9. Just as clouds that come and go, people are put in the grave, never to rise again.

10. They don’t come back to their old homes. The people there would not know them.

11. “So I will not be quiet! I will let my suffering spirit speak! I will let my bitter soul complain!
